Details have been wispy overall surroundingNo Time To Die , andinformation about Paloma has been practically non - existent . She say nothing in the lagger , and neither de Armas nor the studio have revealed much about her reference ; however , there are a few key aspects of the new Bond girl that have been made public .
Paloma is a CIA agent
There are two other women that get more screen time than de Armas in the laggard ; Seydoux ’s Swann andLashana Lynch’sNomi , who istheorized to be the raw 007 . All that the trailer shows of Paloma are a few slam of her wearing a black gown , shooting two guns and launching in the gentle wind to quetch an unidentified henchman .
After the trailer was free , Fukunaga did a lagger crack-up withEmpire , where he revealed a few – but not many – details about Paloma . She is apparently a CIA agent whom Felix Leiter ( Jeffrey Wright ) assigns to Bond in social club to assist the delegacy , so it can be reasonably assumed that she is American . Fukunaga assure Empire that " it was very exciting to try out to figure out a character that would misdirect expectations , " meaning secrets might dwell forrader in relative to her character . As to whether she is a in effect guy or a regretful guy , Empire says they " have eliminated no suspects . "
Paloma is a new kind of Bond girl
While the nature of her human relationship with James Bond continue a secret , it is clear that her role will not be like the classic " femme fatale " bail bond girls of the past . In an interview with theLos Angeles Times , de Armas said that the classic chemical bond girls never felt relatable , and that Paloma is much more existent .
" She says what she feel , she ’s nervous , she ’s frightened . It ’s human . When I translate it , I was like , ' Oh hold back – I can be a Bond lady friend . I ’m that . I ’m that mussy . ' That ’s what finger so attractive , on top of what she ’s actually doing in the tale , which is another step toward giving women a more powerful and solid place in the films . "
No Time To Dieis the first Bond picture to be released in the post-#MeToo epoch , and both Fukunaga and producer Barbara Broccoli worked severely with both de Armas and Lynch to create morefully clear distaff charactersthan have appeared in the past . They also hiredFleabagcreatorPheobe Waller - Bridgeto punch up the script and help in that heed , as well as add humor . For a franchise that has historically process women as disposable case for James Bond to cast aside , we can expect the women inNo Time To Die – especially Paloma – to be different .
